Blackroot Pool today 3rd April
Blimey, that takes me back to my youth, Morturn, such a shame you can't catch a steam train, to Sutton Coldfield, and then enter the park and visit the fair, all gone along with my youth.Paul
Hey Dave if you'd have looked very carefully you'd have seen the form of a boy watching you from the bushes, he slowly turned into an old man of eighty one in the Australian bush. Thank you for reawakening lovely memories of my park. Kind regards, David.Near Bracebridge pool today
Hi David, that yokel of yours must have sat more than one maiden on trees because looking at the pic in #1271 I can see three strange trees, one just showing on the left, and in the pic below another in the distance. Perhaps when there was a mill on the lake, a young lad with time to spare, decided to make full size 'bonsai' trees to puzzle future visitors. The pool had clouds floating in it on the day I was there as can be seen in the other pic.Hey Old Mohawk, that tree grew like that because some yoke,l belonging to Bishop Vesey's household, accidently sat a maiden on it while he plighted his troth. Kind regards, David.
